At Fulford Sixth Form, supporting student wellbeing is paramount and we do this by promoting a positive and inclusive culture, operating young person focused teaching and tutorial systems as well as proactively providing individual support – which begins by us taking time to get to know you!

There are lots of ways in which we strive to support our young people and these include:

  • Developing positive relationships with our students so that they feel they are known and feel comfortable in accessing support
  • Supporting the transition into post16 study and helping new students to Fulford familiarise themselves with the school and getting to know others
  • Helping students to develop independent study skills and by developing an A-Level Mindset
  • Developing our Sixth Form community through regular fun events throughout the year
  • Providing support and guidance through regular Tutor time
  • Delivering information on Wellbeing and Mental Health in assemblies and form periods
  • Providing individual support and signposting around personal matters and issues of wellbeing and mental health through the dedicated Sixth Form wellbeing worker
  • Flexibly operating student timetables and sixth form requirements to support individual health needs
  • Engaging with the wider community through charity awareness and fundraising events
  • Providing easily accessible support through the Sixth Form staff team Open Door policy whereby students can receive a quick response to queries and concerns

 

We recognise that every student is an individual; every student has different stress thresholds and triggers and manages the challenges differently. We look to provide support accordingly and are always here to help.

If you are currently at Fulford Sixth Form and require support, please do get in touch with your tutor, Head of Year or your Learning and Wellbeing Worker.
